Okay, not kicked-off yet...

Wow, I’m sorry. Hope you feel better. Is it weird that I’m like, scared to post my review?

DTYD: I just finished the chapter about Jonathan--currently taking a break in an attempt to make this book last--and I totally understand where you're coming from. That chapter destroyed me (thankfully, I was alone in my dorm room).

Anthony has this way of writing that is so RAW and HONEST, he just takes you right into his story and allows you to feel exactly what he felt. I've never read anything quite like this. No other autobiography written by a celebrity has ever struck such a deep chord in me. Anthony doesn't romanticize or sugarcoat his story, yet the honesty of it is what makes it so beautiful. This book is truly unique and special.

...Okay, I'll stop gushing like a fangirl now.

If you're scared, don't post it. You don't *have* to post one.

D-I, make sure you post it in the Without You thread, not this one.

Secondstar- I completely agree... especially the run-on thought sentences that just make your head completely whirl and- siofjr I'm not good at describing these things.

I agree, Fizz. When the...nevermind, that may be spoiling things for people, I don't want to be a poo. I'll leave it at "I agree" lol

I'd guess... 11? Maybe 12? Complete guesses, of course.

Here, I got this from someone I know who's fairly well-known in the animal behavior field, and he's also a big proponent of animal rights:

That's sad to hear, the only reason I like going to the zoo is to see the baby elephants. It's for the best though...at least I have my elephant stuffed animals

Baby elephants are cute.
I also think that baby pygmy goats are adorable.

Hello Anthony. (Okay, I'm just late in the game.)

Anyway, I hope I can make it.

I did have more to say...but it all escaped my mind.

Well, elephants are great. It's sad that they may close the exhibit--not that I've been to the Bronx Zoo (that I can recall), I just like elephants. I actually rode one once, but I don't remember ever being on an elephant. There's a picture of me riding it though.
